In my opinion the nays have it.

Call in the members.
Military Contribution Against ISILGovernment Orders
The Speaker Andrew Scheer
I declare the amendment defeated.
The hon. chief government whip is rising on a point of order.
John Duncan Conservative Vancouver Island North, BC
Mr. Speaker, the member for Vancouver Kingsway was not in his seat when you read a good part of the question, so I question whether he actually heard the amendment.
Don Davies NDP Vancouver Kingsway, BC
Mr. Speaker, I was in my seat during the bulk of the reading of the motion and I did hear the substance of the motion and cast my vote in an intelligent and informed manner.

The Speaker Andrew Scheer
Order, please. I am not sure if the member for Winnipeg Centre has some advice for the member for Vancouver Kingsway. We have had a few of these.
I do want to inform hon. members that the chair occupants usually wait a few moments after the whips sit down in order to accommodate the last few members arriving at their seats. I will take the hon. member for Vancouver Kingsway at his word that he heard the question. He said he was in the chamber to hear the bulk of the question.
However, I will say that members would be doing a great service to the Speaker and the deputy speakers if they were promptly in their seats. The bells do ring for a long period of time and it is meant to give members enough time to come to the chamber and sit in their seats. Therefore, I would urge members to do so without pushing the envelope.
The next question is on the main motion. Is it the pleasure of the House to adopt the motion?
